I miss your smile I miss the way your eyes twinkled all the time I miss the way you could persuade me to do anything You don't miss my smile You don't miss watching the world around you You don't miss persuading me to go on adventures I miss the gasp my lungs made when you held my hand I miss having to catch up to your lengthy stride I miss the way you would get lost in your books You don't miss my hands meeting yours You don't miss running ahead of me You don't miss reading You've left all these things behind The day you decided you couldn't survive

Gone
I miss your smile I miss the way your eyes twinkled all the time I miss the way you could persuade me to do anything You don't miss my smile You don't miss watching the world around you You don't miss persuading me to go on adventures I miss the gasp my lungs made when you held my hand I miss having to catch up to your lengthy stride I miss the way you would get lost in your books You don't miss my hands meeting yours You don't miss running ahead of me You don't miss reading You've left all these things behind The day you decided you couldn't survive
